Tr. sunrc,,e Court Docket.

The announcement that the Supreme
Court Of Appeals have gotten their docket
so reduced that any case is sure Of herr-
ing in year or less after being dOcketed
brings to mind condition Of things ihit
existed 10 Virginia in 1913. CONWAY l,o-
biDson. in his preface TO the second volume
Of his report, saws:
The great principle Of mdTlq charter,
that Justice or right shall not be sold. de-
MED, or deferred to any man has been fully
recognized in Virginia by statute; but we
have only in practice the benefit Oi part OF
it the most important part, it is true. but
not enough without the other also. Justice,
with us, is not sold. but it is deferred to a
most grleyous txtent-to such IN extent as
to amount almost to a denial Of it. IL is
intolerable that party to an appeal should
be unable. with all possible diligence, 10
get hearing for seven or eight years after
the appeal il allowed. Yet such is the state
Of things in the court at Richmond. aud
Il is fast becoming as bad at Lewisburg."
Then Mr.. Robinson goes on and suggests
remedies for this state OF affairs.
